Congratulations to All military personnel and those involved in building the power of our Air Force on their professional holiday! 🔻Today, August 12, is the Day of the Russian Air Force (RAF). Over more than a century of history, the RAF has gone from airplanes to fifth-generation fighters. 🔻The holiday is dedicated to the branch of the Armed forces, which traces its history back to the beginning of the 20th century it was on 12.08.1912, that aviation issues were transferred to the Aeronautical Department of the Main Directorate of the General Staff. 🔻 This date is considered the day of the formation of military aviation in Russia. 🔻Despite the fact that the Air Force is one of the most advanced and strategically important branches of the armed forces, there is no day off in honor of August 12. Soldiers and officers celebrate him on duty! 🔻In the video, a pilot of the GPW thrice Hero of the USSR Ivan Kozhedub.
